Isn't this a beautiful practice? To make offering to the Universe to thank the forces that be for the success of one's business? Maybe for some, it is just a superstitious act that doesn't achieve anything. But for those who believe, it is a gesture of thankfulness to the forces of the Universe that brought you blessing.

And it's aim is not to achieve something but to give back to the Universe. Maybe, in the hope of making the business more prosperous. Nothing wrong with that. But believe me, it does change some people. My Australian friend and I, going in that day in Red Apron, the top wine store here in Phnom Penh's Street 240, not only got curious but discussed the beauty of this practice. It certainly reminded us of the value of giving thanks and how beautiful it is to make that practice part of a culture.
